Problem Description

Enabling the Shodan analyzer fails with an error of:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./shodan_analyzer.py", line 3, in <module>
    from cortexutils.analyzer import Analyzer
ImportError: No module named 'cortexutils'

To confirm it is installed:

root@ip-10-10-2-40:/opt/Cortex-Analyzers/analyzers/Shodan# pip search cortexutils
cortexutils (1.2.0)  - A Python library for including utility classes for Cortex analyzers
  INSTALLED: 1.2.0 (latest)

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install Cortex
2. pip install requirements.txt (under Shodan Analyzer folder)
3. Execute the python script OR run the analyzer via WebUI

Actually just caught that this module requires Python3, not Python2 like most of the modules. Had to install pip3, then reinstall the requirements.txt

[darksheer]

Closing this for now, but there should probably be some thoughts on how to automate requirement installs for the analyzers.

I've the same issue... Module installed for Python2 and Python3. Any idea?

@xme did you run pip3 install cortexutils as a user or as root ? If install as user module may sit in the homedir/.local and not in the global installdir. In this case, uninstall the lib and reinstall it as root. Otherwise, maybe check permissions on /usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/cortexutils ; User cortex needs to have right to read and load the lib.

As root because it's running in a docker. But I'll check this, could be the reason indeed!
